#### Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef or turkey
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups uncooked brown rice or quinoa
- 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
#### Instructions:
1. **Prep Ingredients**: Begin by dicing the onion and mincing the garlic and ginger. Rinse and prepare all other ingredients as needed.
3. **Cook Meat**: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef or turkey to the pot. Break it up with a spoon and cook until well browned, about 8-10 minutes.
4. **Add Spices and Broth**: Stir in the ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, salt, and pepper. Cook for another minute to allow the spices to release their aromas. Then, pour in the chicken broth and diced tomatoes (including juice). Bring to a boil.
5. **Simmer with Beans and Grains**: Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes. Add the uncooked brown rice or quinoa and kidney beans. Stir well to combine.
6. **Incorporate Coconut Milk**: Pour in the coconut milk and stir gently to ensure it's evenly distributed throughout the chili.
7. **Cook Until Done**: Bring the chili back to a simmer, cover, and let cook for about 20-25 minutes or until the grains are tender and the beans are heated through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
8. **Serve and Enjoy**: Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Serve hot with crusty bread or rice on the side.
#### Tips:
- For a thicker chili, use less chicken broth.
- Experiment with different types of rice or grains for variety.
- Adjust spice levels according to your taste preference.
